Switzerland has seen a massive surge in the betting odds to win the coveted Eurovision 2024 Grand Prix in Malmo. Nem0’s odds are shortening by the hour…..

According to Oddchecker, the landscape has dramatically shifted. Croatia, previously the undisputed frontrunner, now shares the top spot with Switzerland, both sitting at tempting odds of 18/5. Whilst on EurovsionWorld Odds both Switzerland and Croatia are tied in first place to win the trophy with 16% of winning chance,

This surge can be attributed to two key factors. Firstly, the release of a captivating live performance video of “The Code” has set the internet ablaze.

Secondly, Nemo’s electrifying rendition of the song at the Madrid Pre Party on Saturday night solidified his position as a serious contender.
